Information for Tutors
The last day of tutoring for the semester is Friday, May 21st. All tutoring will be completed by 12 noon. Our End-of-the-Year Celebration begins at 12:30 p.m. I will provide grilled burgers. Please bring the food you signed up for and a small unwrapped item ($1 or under) and we will play the highly requested Tutor Bingo game.
- Continue to check your file daily.
- All volunteers and tutors for credit must turn in the hours they have tutored for our records!
- "Blue sheets" are to be filled in for one week at a time. Make sure you keep up with this and do not turn them all in at the end of the month.
- White board pens are not provided by the school at this point. Please purchase your own and keep them with you to guarantee their availability at your tutoring sessions. If you would like to purchase a pen for $1, please see Pauline or Cheri.
- There is a selection of textbooks available for tutors to borrow while in the Center (they may not be taken home). These are located on the bookshelf in room B. Please return them at the end of your tutoring session.
- Due to budget concerns this semester, tutors will be often be asked to work with groups of 2 or more (from the same class, always the same subject like 42a or math 65). You will be paid at the same rate as for one student. When filling out your blue slip, please list both names and bracket them with 1 hour. Thank you!
